Now in open Beta if you have a Quest 2. I'm maybe cursed by too much knowledge (and don't own a Quest 2 yet), but it looks like Rec Room but with way less user-generated creativity or a leg-less VRChat without the utterly cool ecosystem of community-driven creativity.) But maybe I'm being unfair?

If you too get a chance to jump in over the weekend, please share your first-hand impressions!

    Sorry James , I’m unsure whether to laugh or cry at this attempt of VR. All I can see is it driving more folks to perhaps SL or one of the other open sim worlds.

    I wonder what has more polygons, the entire Horizon Worlds or a Legacy body.

    Well, until you get your actual mitts on access to Horizons Worlds, any feelings you have are personal and they can be as biased as you want – and frankly, you’re not the first person to find it a little janky coming from Second Life.
    Summer: Horizon Worlds is targeted to a standalone Quest 2. unfortunately that limits what shaders and geometry are allowed. if SL had been forced into the same limits from day 1 it would have potentially looked closer to this than it does to the renders we see all the time.
